St._Rufino
Rufinus of Assisi
3rd-century Christian saint
According to legend, Rufinus of Assisi (Italian: Rufino), was the first bishop of this city and a martyr.
Sources concerning the life of Saint Rufino are a sermon of eleventh century Peter Damian, (Miracula Sancti Rufini Martyris), and a Passio Sancti Rufini of the 14th century. The Acts of the martyrdom of this Rufinus are purely legendary. He is probably identical with the "episcopus Marsorum" (bishop of the Marsi) noted in the Roman Martyrology under 11 August.[1]
